On this season of "Wicked Tuna", the Captains of Gloucester are reeling from loss of beloved Pinwheel Mate, Nick "Duffy" Fudge. Captain Tyler is joined by his sister, a close friend of Nick's. Together they relentlessly fish in all conditions to honor their friend. It's also a season of twists and turns, starting with underdog boat Wicked Pissah blasting off to an early lead. But in this unpredictable fishery, a dominating lead can disappear in an instant. And this season Jay returns to fish with Captain Marciano on his new boat, The Falcon.
